I think you might be in a tech bubble if you think Americans are blind to how biased and disgraceful the media is. Most Americans are middle of the road when it comes to politics, and middle of the road conservatives and liberals are sick of the narrative the media has been pushing. All you have to do is ask people outside of tech circles how they feel about the media. (Then ask them how they feel about big tech).

In an age of Instagram and twitter, it's baffling and enraging to most Americans that the media pushes a narrative that video and photographic evidence from many different, disparate sources easily disproves. The obvious example in September 2020 is the notion that only peaceful protests are happening, despite much evidence of looting, rioting, and general wanton destruction.

There’s a difference between thinking that any media that doesn’t agree with my political views is disgraceful, and thinking that the entire media industry is profiting from fostering division and controversy.
